What is Phenazopyridine?

This medication comes as a tablet you take for relief of urinary tract pain, burning, irritation, and discomfort, as well as urgent and frequent urination caused by urinary tract infections, surgery, injury, or examination procedures. It is not an antibiotic; it does not cure infections.

Advice & Tips:
I have been looking for other ways to address my symptoms, and have started trying other things. In the past, this treatment has worked well, but I suspect that it was because I was taking the prescription strength rather than over the counter.
As always it is important to take this with an anti-biotic which is the actual "cure". This is just to treat symptoms and it does not always work well for me
